What are the functions of these keys and restrictions

  1. Private Posting Key : This
    is responsible for daily login, votes, comments etc .Private posting key is likely to agree to any account it used on frequently that is why its been limited to avoid the damage that an agreed account key could cause.
  2. Private Activate Key : This is responsible for transfers, power up and down, converting steem dollars, placing a market order etc.
  3. Masters Password / owner Key :
    a Master password is responsible for generating other keys including owner key and it advisable to use it only when use to recover a loss account.
    b Owner key is the most powerful key which can be use to change any key of any account even the owner key it is advisable to use it only when necessary probably when recovery the owner account.

Since i now know how essential these keys are, most especially the master password, i agree that there is need for me to have a soft copy and keep it in a safe place, and secondly also can save it through gmail account so as to have access to it even when phone is missing i can always recover it. And also there will be need to save it in a slash drive too , to avoid sudden deserter .
